The best speaker you ever heard?

No matter the speaker you prefer, try Bybee purifiers. They seam to deal with "something" that is inherent to electric circuits that results in unnatural sound. If you can pay $10K for speakers you surely can spend $170 for a pair of purifiers. Believe me it can be an ear-opener.

I cant'elieve I am writing this. I listened to the beolab 5 today ( in the store for 2 hours). I haven't heard tha many audiophile speakers, ( 1 Dynaudio temtation for 1/2 hour, B&W Nautilis 802 for 1 hr, Matin logan Aerius for an 1 hr, Dunlavy sc6 for 2 hrs, and my own carver als3)so take this with a huge pinch of salt. These are remarkable speakers and the ones that have most affcted me. Really a wow. This was with B&o upstream components that apperared to be barely better than a flashy walkman. I was more than surprised

The bigger Quads fed from McIntosch electronics. That's beyond my means,so I got the Maggie 1.6 s.

Definitely better than the 989.

The best speaker you've ever heard is the one you haven't yet actually experienced but most assuredly surpasses those you have according to those who know. Same with amps.
